Economy 7 and a smart meter

I bought my tenant three new night storage heaters at the beginning of last year to replace the old ones.

I have just taken back management of this flat and a couple of weeks ago she emailed me about them. I told her that this particular meter had the economy 7 coming on at 8am in the...

Reply to Freezing cold, outdated heating and draughty insulation

by NaomiB

A long time ago we lived in a house with sash windows. We used to stuff folded up bits of newspaper in the gaps.

You can get brush draught excluders to screw to the bottom of your door.

Reply to Freezing cold, outdated heating and draughty insulation

by royw

You can use decorators Cork to fill the gaps round the skirting boards. Gapseal make insulation for sash windows. Draught proofing is relatively cheap and well worth doing. You can get thermal curtains but I haven't used them so don't know how good they are.
